Edi Gathegi Talks New Moon

The Twilight Saga's resident bad vamp, Edi Gathegi, recently spoke to MTV, about costume problems in last year's Twilight and what's in store for his character Laurent.

Of New Moon director Chris Weitz, he said:

God bless Chris Weitz. In Twilight we didn't have shoes, because in the book they don't have shoes — you know, nomadic vampires don't have shoes. And I was cold, I was frozen to death! But Chris was like, "Well, wear shoes."

He also spoke about how thankful he is for his time working on the franchise, which has now made him a household name among Twilighters. At least he'll always be immortalized on the Twilight movie posters. Maybe one day he'll even get his very own Laurent action figure — we bet he can't wait.
